Abstract :
The authors describe the simulation of a proposed network for a manufacturing facility. The facility will consist of several buildings spread over a large area. Manufacturing will take place in three separate buildings. A LAN will be required to provide communications for the manufacturing process. The proposed network consists of five carrier-sense-multiple-access with collision detection (CSMA/CD) networks on a fiber distributed data interface (FDDI) backbone. The system configuration, the projected traffic pattern, and the proposed protocols are presented. The models used in constructing the network simulation are described. Results and an analysis of the simulations are outlined
